Why Is the Son Called ‘Everlasting Father’?
Every Christmas, churches around the world celebrate the incarnation of the Son using titles taken from Isaiah 9:6: “Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.” But why should the birth of a son be celebrated with the title “Everlasting Father,” and why does this Son bear this title? While no one assumes confusion between the first and second persons of the Trinity, the answers often given provide little clarity.
Make Enemies with Sin and Satan
The Covenant of Grace Our friendships say a lot about who we are. For example, the righteous should choose their friends carefully, knowing that the ways of the wicked lead them astray (Prov. 12:26). Friendships can make or break people, shaping who we are and making us better or worse for the experience. We tend to become like our friends, and our friends become like us.
What Does Covenant Theology Teach Us about Living in a Family?
Covenant Theology on Family Life Human life usually begins in families. Whether families are stable or unstable, helpful or harmful, family connections shape who we are. Children look like their parents, whether or not they want to. Though parents and spouses cannot, and should not try to, make their children and spouses do and think whatever they want, family life inevitably shapes the speech, mannerisms, habits, and lives of everyone in the household.
Cuándo surgió la idea de que la cárcel puede ayudar a reformar a los presos
Las prisiones son un lugar de sufrimiento. Pero en teoría, su objetivo es algo más que el castigo: reformar al recluso. En Estados Unidos, el objetivo de rehabilitar a los prisioneros se remonta a la apertura en 1876 del Reformatorio Elmira, en el estado de Nueva York. Planteada como una institución de “reforma benévola”, el reformatorio se proponía no solo privar a los detenidos de su libertad sino transformarlos.
The Idea That Imprisonment ‘Corrects’ Prisoners Stretches Back To Some Of The Earliest Texts In History
Prisons are places of suffering. But in theory, they aim for something beyond punishment: reform. In the United States, the goal of prisoner rehabilitation can be traced back, in part, to the 1876 opening of the Elmira Reformatory in upstate New York. Purported to be an institution of “benevolent reform,” the reformatory aimed to transform prisoners, not just deprive them – though founder Zebulon Brockway, known as the “Father of American Corrections,” was notoriously harsh.

Understanding Biblical Covenants Is As Easy As 1, 2, 3
Covenant in the Christian Life Many of us are familiar with the language of the covenant.1 We hear terms like covenant membership or covenant baptism, and yet some of us may still be hard pressed to describe what we mean by covenant. Why is this theme so important in Scripture? Why does it matter in the Christian life? If we are people of the covenant, then we must understand what covenant theology is all about and how we can explain it to others.

10 Things You Should Know about Covenant Theology
This article is part of the 10 Things You Should Know series. 1. Covenant theology is about the gospel. Romans 5:12–21 is a great example of covenant theology on display in the Bible. Paul explains the gospel by discussing how sin entered into the world through the transgression of one man and through him, all were made sinners. But just as the many were made sinful by Adam’s disobedience, the many will be justified through Jesus Christ’s perfect obedience.

The Servant Songs of Isaiah
Written by J. Nicholas Reid | Saturday, November 2, 2019 Some of the most memorable questions in the New Testament are answered in relation to the Servant Songs. Whether it is the eunuch asking Phillip if the fourth song is about Isaiah or someone else (Acts 8), or John the Baptist sending his disciples to ask Jesus, “Are you the one who is to come, or shall we look for another?” (Luke 7:20), the significance of these songs cannot be overstated.
